Hi Barbara,

I'm doing pretty god, the last week I have been fighting the same 2lbs Down 1 up 2 then down 2 up1, I strated really watching the caarbs and today I" down 2lbs, 32 in all. Haven't had to much trouble with food but mostly sticking to chicken fish and vegetables, Ihave tried small anounts of salad only romaine lettuse thou. Sorry to hear you had a hard time with the ribs, Love them but will wait a litte longer to try them. We have a wonderful BBQ place here, they have the best ribs cooked outside on caol grills. We went there last night and I had the chicken kids plate, ate the salad 1/2 roasted red potatoand 1/2 of the chicken breast. I was stuffed.

Let me know how the Ovation works for you, my hair has been thining for years, would love to get it back to the thick hair I used to have. I have very fine hair so keeping it thick help give it more body.

Have a great day.

I am such a slave to my scales, even bought a new one that tells you everything BMI % of body fat, hydration level and bone mass. I step on the scale every morning. I'm down 26 lbs as of this am. I'm doing pretty good, can't wait till I can start bowling again. Sitting and watching isn't much fun. I am on 3 teams hoping I will be able to start again next Friday. We'll see how that goes before taking on Monday and Tuesday again, don't want to over do it.

No haven't had any trouble with swollowing food but have noticed that some things I DONOT like at all that I was ok with pre-op. My B-day was Sunday so mom made me an egg custard and had ice cream(vannila) with it, the custard was good the ice cream not so much and I was an ice creamaholic pre surgery, also I was ok with the ESA protein shakes from Walmart and had one in the fridge so I went to drink it and about barfed. Going to stick to the premium protein from Costco. THe tuna I ate for lunch today usually like it, but now it has very fishy taste and I suffered thru it but wont eat it again for awhile. Too bad I bought so much of it the other day.

The only real problem I have had is when I drink cold liquids I feel nausus for a few moments, but it passes and I can dirnk again It helps if the liquids are more like room temp.

Just cheking up on you. I'm enjoying the mushy stage except for the tuna fish I'm having for lunch today, not as good without the bread. Hope all is going good for you.

Hi Barbara, Just checking up on you. How it going? Are you enjoying the mushy stage? I find it hard to find mushy foods that have protein in then so I still drink 2 protein shakes a day right now. For lunch today I'm having tuna fish, not so good without the bread thou. Last week I had a hearing convention to go to that was a challenge food wise but got thru it with a lot of soup that I could heat up in the room and the protein shakes. I'm now able to take my meds without crushing them just split them in half, and take 1/2 atime. Yahoo!!!!

Hope everything is going good for you.
